There is absolutely NO reason why you can't control the hi hat the way you want to just because there is a slave pedal next to the hi hat stand.

I reckon you're reading a hell of a lot more into his post than was expressed though. Thought he just said he prefers to control the high hat all the time?

To me that just says that he can no longer be arsed with a slave pedal. Not that he can't play because of its very existence.

I'm not much fazed either way to be honest. But you did ask the question, remember. I merely responded. From where I'm sitting it appears you're vehemently countering a point he never made. And as such, I don't see where you're going with this.
